Poem # 1 - To The Girl in the Hall

Another of my goals for the summer is to write a poem every day, since I used to do that a lot, so here goes the first one.

To The Girl in the Hall

Everyday I see you, sitting in the hall
You always look sad, you're always alone.
Talking to no one, always looking down.
I want to say something.
I want to, but I can't.

I talk to my friends, go about my life,
Rarely spare you a fleeting thought.
Yet day after day, you sit there alone.
I want to invite you to hang out.
I want to, but I can't.

I'm a busy whirwind, barely stopping to breath.
Work, school, friends, life, always keep me busy.
Yet you are a constant, always in the same spot.
I want to ask you if you're okay.
I want to, but I can't.

I can tell that you see me, envy me even.
You talk to no one but you always see, you're always there.
Engrossed in your book, yet not really seeing it.
I want to introduce myself.
I want to, but I can't.

The next day you're crying, big silent tears.
Still in the same spot, no one spares you a glance.
You wipe your face with your hand, not moving an inch.
I want to ask what happens.
I want to, but I can't.

The next day I pass by your usual spot.
You're not there anymore.


Another poem to come tommorow if I stick to the plan!!
